Who made this and is this name correct. I tried to google it and got nothing. Does anyone know anything about the size, depth, etc?

Thanks for the Jet Tone reference Bloke. Once I looked that up I realized it's TUHH and Miah you are also correct. Even the almighty Google can't hold a candle to the computing power in the collective mind of TubeNet

New Heavyweight Models
The new, heavyweight models add approximately 60% more weight to the cup walls and throat areas which gives more resonance to the sound. Note: heavyweight models feature the exact same internal specifications as the standard models.
JETUH Helleberg
Similar to the Conn Helleberg. Features an inside cup diameter of 1.275" with a relatively flat rim in combination with a deep cup. This mouthpiece plays beautifully throughout the range of the tuba with exceptional projection.
JETUHII Helleberg II
Similar to the Schilke Helleberg II. Same inside cup diameter, undercut rim, narrower and more rounded rim with a medium deep cup. This model provides players with great flexibility and control.
Features
Both exact copies and heavy wall versions available
Copied to within .0005"
Same back bore as the original, not enlarged as some other heavy mouthpieces
The heavy wall mouthpieces are "Ugly but quite functional"
Straight from the brasswind site.
